Hi there,

I have over the years tried to make gifts for the small people in my life that are a bit different. Last year I made dragons. I used Simplicity pattern 8715

I have made 10 dragons so far with 5 more to go then I will be finished forever .

I think making these has contributed to my hands losing strength and dexterity due to fatigue . I have been advised that the less I fatigue my hands the longer they will still work. I have also been advised to find interests that don’t involve using my hands to much . This is a tricky ask as a tactile creative , I am looking at electric scissors and tools to help me navigate this.

This is really not a quick sew but all the little people who have received these love their shoulder dragons .

Hope you are enjoying your creative exploits,

Happy Sewing,

Sue😊
